The Romance Option

in Personal Story

There’s too many combinations.

For interesting romance role-play, you need at least 2 choices otherwise it’s not really role-playing. Then, in 2012, after Bioware opened the door to that, you’re pretty much expected to have a same-sex option too, so the actual minimum is probably 3 romance options per race, and per gender. That would force Arenanet to write 30 romance story, and this looks like quite an undertaking.

If the devs are willing to put the resources to do that, I’d be very, very happy. I’d absolutely love to see my character fall in love, but I feel I’d be asking a lot to the devs to make it true.

Who needs a romance story? These are harsh times in Tyria, there’s no room for long courtship. Find a NPC, marry it the next day. Then put it in your personal instance as a vendor who can give you a food consumable every day.
Wait a minute… I’ve seen this before…

Out of memory

Hello,

I’m on WinXP 32b with the maxed 4GB RAM, I’m ok with not being able to use high quality texture (I only use one pack on two of the HQ textures in Skyrim). However in Guild Wars 2 I regularly crash on loading screens.

I understand there’s a 2GB limit, but I would think that they could work with it with lower settings and that changing zones would be an opportunity to free some memory and use it for the requirements of next zone, but after a few loading, there’s one that crashes.

It’s a proper “out of memory” error, finely handled by the error catcher. No BSOD, no reboot, no monitor explosion or implosion.

What can I do? What can Arena Net do?
